Finding Hernias

We had five surgeries scheduled for today. These were a spay, a neuter, a mass removal, and two declaws. The two declaws got cancelled though, but I got to watch the other three surgeries. This is a picture of the spay before she got spayed. When they shaved her tummy, they noticed she had an umbilical hernia. Which is basically a dogs form of a belly button. While they were spaying her they removed it too because doggies are not supposed to have that extra lump there.
